chapter 10 A trip to Shengyu City

After several days of trekking, Merric Ince and his party finally arrived in front of Shengyu City.

Shengyu City is the third largest city in the Holy Sky Alliance and the education center of the Holy Sky Alliance. This city has a long history, about 20,000 years ago. Shengyu City has existed since the Holy Spirit Legion established its first dynasty in the east. It has witnessed the rise and fall of the Eastern Border in various historical periods. 20,000 years ago, the "All Saints Emperor" led the Holy Legion to establish the first empire in the East. Then his successor "All Saints Supreme" expanded the empire to the entire East Border. 10,000 years ago, the Dream Demon broke through the All Saints Emperor and the All Saints. The combined efforts of the Demon Saint Lord sealed him and devastated all living beings. Finally, the Divine Demon Emperor, recognized as the most outstanding leader in the human race, sealed him again. After the God and Demon Emperor ascended to heaven, the first warlord war began in the Eastern Territory. 5,000 years ago, the Magic God unified the Eastern Territory. Five hundred years ago, the Eastern Boundary was once again divided by warlords. It was not until 20 years ago that the Holy Sky Allied Forces, led by the God of War Wulfric Ince, wiped out the Eastern Boundary warlords one by one. This is now the Holy Sky Allied Powers. Twenty thousand years have passed and many cities have perished one after another, but Shengyu City is still standing. This has to be said to be a miracle.

Today's Shengyu City has received more attention from the national administrative center than before. After all, the foundation of a country's prosperity is the reserve of talents, and cultivating talents must start with education. Because of the existence of Shengyu College, Shengyu City has attracted much attention from the Eastern Boundary and even the entire world. Shengyu College is the largest college in the Star Territory. Talents from this college can be found in all parts of the Star Territory and in various fields, including politics, military, economics, medicine, literature, etc. One-third of the elites in the world today have some connection with Shengyu College. These people either studied in Shengyu College or studied abroad in Shengyu College. No college in the world has the same ultimate strength as Shengyu College. In order to compete, Shengyu College has been ranked first in the Nifabu Senior College Rankings for a hundred consecutive years, which has to show that Shengyu College plays an important role in the entire star field education industry.

Shengyu College enrolls students in September every year. They only enroll 3,000 students each year, but hundreds of thousands of students sign up every year. For the sake of fairness in education, except for citizens of the Holy Sky Allies, students from other countries must go through them. Only those selected by the country have the opportunity to come to Shengyu College for the final assessment, while citizens of the Holy Sky Allies need to pass the assessment of their local educational institutions before they can come to Shengyu City to take the exam, whether it is the local assessment of the Holy Sky Allies or various The national assessment is very strict, because the elimination rate of Shengyu College's final exam is 90%, and no one wants to let their selected students be eliminated in the first round.

The exams at Shengyu College are divided into literary and martial arts exams. The top 1,500 students in each exam will enter the college to study. Generally speaking, the number of places for the literary test is limited, while the registration for the martial arts test can be completed before the start of the martial arts test.

Of course, there are exceptions to these strict examinations. For example, if a mage has obtained the qualification of a formal magician (six-star mage), or has won international awards in other fields, such talents can be interviewed for admission, but in this case There are too few people. People with such results are generally middle-aged and are not in the mood to go to school. For example, if you want to be qualified as a formal magician, your combat power must reach at least the heaven level, and it will take thirty years for a normal person to practice hard every day to reach the heaven level. He is over thirty years old. I'm still in the mood for school.

Without further ado, it was already noon when Merric and the others arrived at the gate of Shengyu City. The gate of Shengyu City is wide open. Above the gate of Shengyu City are two ancient eastern boundary characters, namely "Shengyu". These two characters are carved on marble. This marble has a history of 20,000 years. These two words were written by Crow, a famous handicraft master in ancient times. He was both an ancient sculptor and a caster. He cast the famous "Nine Extremes Divine Weapon". The most important thing is that he He was the first mayor of Shengyu City.

There are two giant warriors about three meters tall at the gate of Shengyu City. They stand on both sides of the gate of Shengyu City with their swords raised, looking solemn and majestic. Shengyu City is very lively, with pedestrians coming and going in and out of Shengyu Gate, including humans, dwarves, elves, etc. It is said that at night, there are undead tribes on the streets.

Seeing the bustling crowd inside Shengyu Gate, Anubis was very excited and shouted: "We are finally here, I have to take a good walk around Shengyu City, which is much bigger than our place."

Hailey glanced at Anubis, "I've never seen this before, you old hater, hum!"

Anubis immediately replied: "Do you care? I found that the quality of students who are about to graduate from colleges and universities is only this."

"Then why don't you just squeeze in and get into the higher education institution? I hope you can't even pass the preliminary exam." Then Hailey glanced at Anubis himself and said with more certainty: "You will definitely not be able to pass."

"I think what she said makes sense."Jakub agreed with Hailey's point of view.

"Shut up, I see you are talking more and more, don't you need to clean up?"Anubis was very dissatisfied when he saw that his followers were all helping Hailey to speak.

"Okay, stop arguing." The knight pulled the two people away and continued: "There is no such thing as a banquet that lasts forever. We should separate here. But I believe we will meet again in the future."

"Really?"Merric Ince asked.

"The purpose of my coming to Shengyu City this time is to take over as the guard captain of Shengyu City, so you can come to me if you have anything in the future." The knight finally explained to everyone the purpose of his coming to Shengyu City. It turned out that the people in this place were very dissatisfied with the Giffy family, and someone had already brought the complaint to the royal city. The people in the royal city also attached great importance to it. The locals should have elected the captain of the guard of their city, but they were afraid of retaliation from the Giffy family, so they sent a Templar. During non-war periods, knights do not need to guard the head of state at all times. They will be sent to various parts of the Holy Heaven Allies.

Hearing that the knight came to Shengyu City to be the captain of the guard, the dwarf village chief was very happy. They finally met a savior and their children finally had hope. Everyone also feels that having a knight as the captain of the guard is indeed very helpful to local security. Because of the emergence of High Priest Hailong, there is a great need for a capable person to control the situation.

Of course, the happiest person was Hailey. She said excitedly to the knight: "Is it true? I can go to you if anything happens in the future."

"Of course." The knight smiled slightly at Hailey.

"Great, if anyone dares to fight with us in the future, we will go to you for help."Anubis was also very satisfied with the knight being the captain of the guard.

"You'd better fight less, or I'll arrest you too." The knight said seriously.

Merric Ince said nothing. Ever since Heiqi told him that they were going to meet, he had been feeling depressed. He always felt that something bad was going to happen, and these things should happen in Shengyu City.

"Okay, it's time to separate. See you later." The knight waved his hand to everyone, motioning for the dwarf village chief to follow him, and then he and the village chief rode towards Shengyu City on horseback.

Now only Merric Ince, Anubis, Jakub and Hailey were left. Hailey reluctantly waved to the knight, then looked at the knight's retreating figure, sighed and said softly: "Happy time is always short. of."

"Hailey, we are not familiar with Shengyu College. Please take us there."Merric Ince said politely.

Hailey raised his head, smiled, and said to him: "Well, I will take you there. Maybe I will still be your senior sister in the future."

Merric Ince also laughed. Anubis looked around aimlessly on the side, pretending not to hear.

Then the three of them walked into Shengyu City.

Stepping into the gate of Shengyu City, although Anubis was well prepared, he was still surprised by the prosperity of Shengyu City. Shengyu City was bustling with traffic and people, and there were business cries everywhere, and people riding various People of all races on horseback can be seen everywhere. The buildings on both sides of the road are all in classical style. There are many magic lights in the sky. I believe it must be brightly lit at night. There are also guards on high-headed war horses patrolling the streets. They wear The neat red uniform, with a silver sword printed with the emblem of Shengyu City on the right side of the mount, uniformly patrolled every inch of Shengyu City. Most of the pedestrians on the street are wearing gorgeous clothes, and it seems that there are many wealthy people. This city is countless times better than their hometown.

They walked slowly while looking at the scenery on the street. Merric Ince came from the royal city and was not surprised by the sight in front of him. After walking for a while through the bustling crowd in front of him, Hailey said to everyone: "We will arrive at the main city in a while. Follow the road to the main city and keep walking until you can see the gate of Shengyu College. There are new students there. Registration office, when the time comes you go there and sign up. I guess we are the last students here, and I don’t know if you can still take the literary test. After signing up, you can find a hotel near the school to stay."

"Is the exam difficult?"Merric Ince asked casually.

"The literary test is about answering questions, and the martial arts test is about traveling through Sheng Yu's secret room."

"What kind of secret room?"

"I don't know either. I was taking the literary test."Hailey He didn't know what the secret room looked like.

"Oh."Merric Ince was slightly disappointed.

After walking for a while, Hailey seemed to remember something. "By the way, Merric Ince should have come to Shengyu City for the preliminary examination through the selection of the royal city. What about you?"Hailey had doubts about how Anubis obtained the qualification for the preliminary examination.

"I won't tell you!!!"Anubis left a question mark in everyone's mind.

Jakub chuckled, of course he knew, but before coming, Anubis told him not to tell anyone, so he had to keep it a secret.

"I don't want to know."Hailey was not curious about Anubis's secret.

Unknowingly, they finally arrived at the main city of Shengyu City.
